for my (fiction-)writer friends

[cellio]

Stack Exchange has a site for writers -- all kinds of writing, including technical (why I'm there, mainly), but mostly fiction. November is National Novel-Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), and we're hoping to see some increased activity because of that. Stack Exchange is all about asking good questions and getting good answers. I'm a moderator on this site, which is in beta and trying to grow.

As a tie-in to NaNo the site is having a contest for new questions and answers in genre-related tags -- questions about science fiction, fantasy, children's writing, mysteries, historical fiction, more. See the linked post for details. (Yes, questions about fan fiction are ok.) Winners get either writing-related books of their choice or a one-year subscription to Duotrope, a market-tracking service (winner's choice). Plus, of course, if you have questions, with luck you also win useful answers to those questions. :-)

Please feel free to share this with people who would be interested.

Glad I could help!

Yeah, let's go with "help". :-)
